  • Your gym clothes should allow you to feel dry, comfortable, and confident.
  • Wear clothes that let you move freely without constricting you in any way.
  • Wear clothing made of synthetic material such as nylon, acrylic, or polypropylene that will give you a good balance of comfort and flexibility.
  • Cotton is probably the most best and common workout fabric, as it is reasonably priced, breathable, and comfortable.
  • Depending on the climate, a fitted t-shirt or tank top with comfortable pants or gym shorts are ideal clothing options for the gym.

 

Here are some more tips to help you look and feel great at the gym:

 

Training shoes-

Before deciding on a shoe, it’s important that you try on a few until you find the one that feels just right. Test out your gym shoes before buying them by walking around in the store and jumping up and down.

Socks-

Choose white or grey socks as they reflect sunlight and allow your feet to breathe. Socks made from acrylic or an acrylic blend can be worn.

 

 

Sports Bras-

 

A good sports bra can provide support and minimize excessive movement, but make sure they are comfortable and allow you to breathe easily.
